LEG 1 Royal Fixation, Staya

Minnie Hauk will be a short price but looks a good thing on day two of the Ebor Festival

ROYAL FIXATION can swoop late to land the Lowther.
She surged home for second in the Duchess of Cambridge at Newmarket on just her second start, clocking a smart speed figure and shaping like a filly with loads more to come.
STAYA also caught the eye finishing fast in a strong Group 3 at Ascot and will be running on late.
LEG 2 Golden Brown, Song Of The Clyde

GOLDEN BROWN was really unlucky in a hot contest at Godowood last time.
He was knocked sideways inside the final quarter-mile before keeping on. He's unexposed, back on quicker ground and this stronger pace should suit.
SONG OF THE CLYDE is progressive and has place claims in what looks an open race.
LEG 3 Remmooz, Bullet Point

REMMOOZ looked a Group horse in the making when winning on handicap debut over course and distance last time.
He saw off a few of today's rivals with a bit left in the tank.
Owen Burrows will conjure more improvement from him even from a mark of 102.
BULLET POINT is in peak form and rarely runs a bad race.
He was narrowly denied in a red-hot contest at Ascot last time and will likely force the pace again from a low draw.

LEG 4 Minnie Hauk
MINNIE HAUK is the clear standout in this small but classy renewal of the Yorkshire Oaks.
Unbeaten this season and already a dual Oaks winner, she's been dominant over this trip and shaped as though there was plenty in the tank when grinding out victory in the Irish Oaks last month.
LEG 5 Rainbows Edge, Charlotte's Web
RAINBOWS EDGE has gone close a couple of times at Listed level and this is a great winning chance.

She took a fast-ground handicap over a mile at Ascot in May and proved that was no fluke when denied only a neck over 1m2f in a stronger race than this here last month.
CHARLOTTE'S WEB was right behind the Royal runner last time and will be in the mix again.
LEG 6 Stellar Sunrise, Amazing Journey
STELLAR SUNRISE took a big step forward when winning at Goodwood last time and starts handicapping from a fair mark.
AMAZING JOURNEY scored here two starts ago and was really unlucky not to finish closer than fifth at Goodwood latest.

Minnie Hauk proves too strong in Yorkshire Oaks
completed an Oaks four-timer with a neat victory in the Pertemps Network Yorkshire Oaks. One of two runners for Aidan O'Brien in the contest, the bay came into the York Group One with Cheshire, English and Irish renewals on her CV this term and was ridden by Ryan Moore as the 8-15 favourite. Her stablemate Garden Of Eden set the pace and David O'Meara's Estrange did ensure the winner had a race, but the triumph was ultimately light work by three and a half lengths on the line. Royal Fixation sprinted away from the field to land Group Two honours in the Sky Bet Lowther Stakes at York. Trained by Ed Walker and ridden by William Buick, the 5-2 joint-favourite was settled well off the pace in the six-furlong contest and had plenty of ground to make up as the race began in earnest. But once Buick got lower in the saddle, Royal Fixation picked up in style to beat market rival America Queen by a length. Staya also made late gains to be beaten a further two lengths in third. Clive Cox ruled the Harry's Half Million By Goffs once again as Song Of The Clyde came out on top. The Middleham Park Racing-owned colt was ridden by Rossa Ryan and settled into a position at the fore of the 21-strong field in the early stages as a 15-2 shot. As the race progressed he did not falter, putting his head down to lengthen towards the line and give his stable a third successive win in the richly-endowed sales race. Bullet Point could make a swift return to York on Saturday after stamping his class on Thursday's €173,000 Clipper Handicap. A winner at Newcastle and Newmarket in the autumn, the William Haggas-trained four-year-old picked up where he left off when completing his hat-trick at the Craven meeting in April and emerged with plenty of credit when second in the Royal Hunt Cup at Ascot next time. Having again filled the runner-up spot at the Berkshire track last month, Tom Marquand's mount was the 15-8 favourite to regain winning ways on the Knavesmire and while he was briefly caught in a pocket, he quickened up smartly once the gap came to win by a length from Cerulean Bay.

Minnie Hauk short odds to add name to stellar Yorkshire Oaks roll of honour
Few Group One races anywhere can boast as stellar a roll of honour as Thursday's Pertemps Yorkshire Oaks, for which Aidan O'Brien's star filly Minnie Hauk is a heavy odds-on favourite. Already winner of this season's English and Irish Oaks, Minnie Hauk has only three opponents trying to deny her a notable hat-trick achieved by Snowfall (2021) and the mighty Enable in 2017. Enable won the Yorkshire Oaks again in 2019, a year before the superb Love beat Alpinista. The latter won it herself in 2022 en route to securing Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe glory. All justified favouritism at cramped odds of varying degrees. Since then, O'Brien has won twice more with Warm Heart and Content to bring his tally in the race to eight. One more will equal the race record of Michael Stoute and 19th-century training titan Mathew Dawson. READ MORE Only once in the last eight years has the Yorkshire Oaks favourite not won, including Enable twice at 1-4. But those tempted to trade on Minnie Hauk at similar odds might do well to recall how O'Brien's Tapestry upset the 1-5 Taghroodha in 2014. Nevertheless, anything but a Minnie Hauk victory will be a shock. Her Ribblesdale-winning stable companion, Garden Of Eden, failed in her own Oaks assignment in Germany earlier this month, while Qilin Queen looks outclassed. It leaves the grey older filly Estrange as a viable danger. Trained by Fermoy's own David O'Meara, she landed the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock on her last start. However, very quick ground conditions may not be ideal for her. Dermot Weld first won York's Galtres Stakes 13 years ago with Pale Mimosa. In 2019, his subsequent dual Irish Leger heroine Search For A Song was victorious. This time he relies on Alice Monet to leap from claiming company to Listed success. Admittedly, Alice Monet won a Fairyhouse claimer by 10 lengths last month before picking up a handicap at Leopardstown. She is joined in the race by O'Brien's Butterfly Wings, fourth to her illustrious stable companion, Minnie Hauk, in the Curragh Oaks last time. Colin Keane skips York for four rides at Leopardstown's final summer evening fixture, where he will attempt to close the gap to Dylan Browne McMonagle in the jockeys' championship. Browne McMonagle leads Keane by two winners (63-61) and is a 1-2 favourite with Paddy Power to ultimately be crowned champion for the first time in November. However, he is suspended for two days, and Keane (11-8) will also be in action in Killarney on Friday evening. The reigning champion is on board Nuit for Henry de Bromhead in the featured Listed Vinnie Roe Stakes at Leopardstown. She was last behind Estrange in the Lancashire Oaks. Galveston is a ratings standout in his first try beyond a mile-and-a-half. Third in Royal Ascot's King Edward VII, he can be forgiven a poor effort at Goodwood when a deluge turned ground conditions heavy. The 12-time UAE champion jockey Tadhg O'Shea is also in action at Leopardstown. He rides two for Denis Hogan, including Green Icon, who looked a little unlucky when third at the Curragh on Saturday.
